Electroceuticals is the attempt to
speak the electrical language of the nerves to achieve higher treatment effect. Thus, the search is on to develop devices to enhance personalised healthcare. Part of creating such devices is selecting materials that can interface between biology and computers. One such material is the skin pigment melanin since it is bio-compatible and sustains electrical current. Recently we obtained electrical measurements on melanin that showed that a major charge carrier, the proton, changes its conduction/mobility behaviour as a function of temperature and hydration. We wish to understand this change using quasi elastic neutron scattering, since it is excellent for probing proton dynamics. The key outcome is to extract proton dynamics (as a function of hydration and temperature) and then model the data. This may give insight into device design.
